As disclosed in the Issuer's definitive proxy statement dated September 29, 2014, in September 2014, the Audit Committee of the Issuer's Board of Directors had reduced the previously-announced suspension of voting rights of Class B Shares held by shareholders who are not U.S. citizens from 35% to 10%. The Issuer also has indicated that the suspension of voting rights will remain in place for as long as the Issuer deems it necessary to maintain compliance with U.S. law and will revise the suspension of voting rights based upon the Issuer's on-going monitoring of the level of foreign ownership. The Issuer also has reported that the suspension of voting rights will not apply in connection with any vote on any matter in which holders of Class A Common Stock shall be entitled to vote together with holders of Class B Shares, as described in the Issuer's Restated Certificate of Incorporation.
